Prominence in Football Community
Chapter 288: An Unexpected Invitation
Christmas has just passed, and there are still traces of Christmas in Wu Lei's home, such as the Christmas tree with colorful lights.
However, among a large number of baby toys, this Christmas tree is not the protagonist.
The protagonist is a little baby lying on a thick cushion under the Christmas tree. Wu Lei and his wife surround her, teasing her with various toys.
The little baby opened his eyes wide, looking at the two people in front of him curiously.
Then she held out her hands.
Seeing this, Wu Lei at the side quickly reached out his hand, wanting to hug the child.
Unexpectedly, seeing his hands, the little baby's mouth suddenly shrunk, and he began to cry.
"Husband, she wants me to hug her!" The wife complained beside her.
Wu Lei, who was complained about, was a little unconvinced: "How do you know you don't want me to hug you?"
"Stop making trouble, the baby is hungry!" The wife squeezed her husband away, reached out to hug the baby, and walked to the bedroom while comforting her.
Wu Lei also wanted to join in, but at this moment his phone rang.
When he picked up the phone and saw that it was Director Xu calling, he was still a little surprised.
"Hello, Director Xu? I'm at home. What's the matter?"
Director Xu's voice sounded on the phone: "Boy, I have to inform you about something. A La Liga club is very interested in you..."
Hearing these words, Wu Lei felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He stood still and forgot to answer his teacher for a while.
"Hey, hello? Is your signal bad over there?"
"Ah, no, sorry, Director Xu. I... am a little surprised."
"What a surprise, everyone is watching your performance this season. The La Liga club that is interested in you, you must know, is the Spaniard who was acquired by a Chinese company some time ago. It is not a strong team, but I think For you, it is very suitable to choose the first stop of studying abroad, the pressure is much less, and it can also help you integrate into the local environment..."
Director Xu also said something, but Wu Lei didn't listen to it, he just felt very puzzled.
What he had agreed with Director Xu before was to get the Chinese Super League Golden Boot this season.
But he failed to fulfill the agreement. In the end, although his number of goals in a single season broke through the 20-goal mark, he was still two goals short of the final league golden boot Aloisio.
Brazilian striker Aloisio won the Chinese Super League Golden Boot with 22 goals, while Wu Lei ranked second with 20 goals.
Since he didn't get the top scorer in the Chinese Super League, according to the agreement between him and Director Xu, he naturally can't consider going abroad to play football.
In addition, after the league ended, the first child in his life had just been born, and all his thoughts were transferred to his daughter for a while, and he had no time to regret that he could not go abroad to play football.
Who would have thought that now his mentor actually called and told him that he had a chance to play football abroad!
"Director Xu, Director Xu...it's not that I didn't get the top scorer..."
"Hey! Who cares about that! When the opportunity comes, can you give it up for such an unreasonable reason?"
Director Xu's words on the phone made Wu Lei a little confused - why is there no reason? Didn't we agree?
"No, Director Xu, we..."
"I'm here to inform you. As for whether you want to go abroad to play football, it depends on your own wishes. If you don't want to go out, I promise I won't drive you away. You should think about it for yourself, just give me these two days." I have an answer!"
After speaking, Director Xu hung up the phone very bluntly.
Wu Lei clutched the phone and had no other reaction at all.
When the wife came out after feeding the child, she saw her husband in a daze, and remembered that her husband had just answered the phone before, and she felt a little bit in her heart. Could something happen?
So she asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Wu Lei looked at his wife, and his eyes gradually regained focus. He smiled bitterly and said, "Just now I received a call from Director Xu, saying that a La Liga team is interested in me..."
Without saying a word, he heard his wife say "ah" in surprise: "Isn't this a good thing? Why do I see you not very happy?"
Wu Lei shook his head and said, "I don't know if this is a good thing..."
"Why do you say that? Haven't you always wanted to play football abroad?"
"I'm a little hesitant now."
"What's wrong?" His wife looked into Wu Lei's eyes and asked seriously.
"I did not fulfill my agreement with Director Xu, and I did not get the real Chinese Super League Golden Boot."
His wife denied him: "No, I think you are the top scorer in the Chinese Super League. You didn't have a single penalty in your 20 goals, but Aloisio's 22 goals had five points. Aside from these five penalties, how many goals has he scored? And you can score 20 goals without a single penalty, you are much better than him!"
Wu Lei knew that this was what his wife said to comfort him. Any league statistics scorer list will not say that it is not a penalty. The scorer list only depends on the number of goals. No matter how you score, as long as you can score, you will come at the end than the total number of goals scored.
He is indeed not the top scorer in the Super League.
Not enough. This is not the main reason for his hesitation. The more important reason is the child.
"The child has just been born, if I go abroad to play football, what will you two do?"
Hearing what Wu Lei said, his wife smiled: "Hey, I still said what's the matter... Aren't my parents still there? And your parents can come to help. What are you worried about? If you miss us Well, after the child is over a hundred days old, I can also bring the child to Spain to find you. I think if you really want to play football, then there are no difficulties. Unless you don’t want to play football, then everything can be done It's an excuse."
Wu Lei looked at his wife, both of them were very low-key people, so that after they got married last year, not many people knew about it. His wife is also rarely exposed to the media public.
But Wu Lei is very aware of how much support and help his wife has given him.
It can be said that his ability to concentrate on training and competition is inseparable from the support of his wife behind him.
Now the woman he loves the most has just brought him the crystallization of their love, but now she is persuading him to leave and pursue his dream.
But Wu Lei knew that she was actually the one who hated herself the most.
What woman would like to have her husband not around just after giving birth?
Thinking of this, Wu Lei shook his head: "I'd better not go, wait a few more years, maybe there will be a chance..."
His wife's voice suddenly became harsh: "How do you know that there will be opportunities in the future? You are already twenty-four years old, how long will you have to wait in the future? One or two years? Or four or five years? Four or five years later, wait for you What's the point of going abroad to play football when you're twenty** years old? Or is it that you don't really want to go abroad to play football? The dream you told me before was to make me happy and lie to me..."
"I didn't lie to you!" Seeing what his wife said, Wu Lei hurriedly argued.
"Then you go! You said it yourself, playing football in Europe is your dream all along. Now this dream is in front of you, but you don't want it?"
Wu Lei fell silent.
At this moment, the sound of a child crying sounded in the bedroom. His wife took a look at Wu Lei, got up and went inside to comfort the child. Wu Lei was the only one left in the living room.
He fell silent like a statue.
